The game is based on an alternate history theory that after the defeat of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy near the end of World War II, Japan was conquered and occupied by both Soviet and American forces - rather than solely by the US, as in actual history. | The game is based on an alternate history theory that after the defeat of Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy near the end of World War II, Japan was conquered and occupied by both Soviet and American forces - rather than solely by the US, as in actual history. | ||

|Comments= | |Comments=FMVs such as the one at the intro crash the game (skippable with START), with later ones preventing players from finishing it. There seems to be noticeable slowdown (down to ~10FPS) when reading from the disc, though after loading is complete the game plays smoothly with only some very minor graphical glitches in the battle action icons. | ||

|Workaround= | |Workaround=Go to Config > Emulation Settings > Game Fixes tab, click "Enable manual game fixes" and turn on the "Switch to GSdx software rendering when an FMV plays" fix. Alternatively you can go to software mode and back manually with the F9 button, or just play the game in native resolution or software mode. Going to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, clicking "Enable HW Hacks", going to Configure Hacks, and enabling the "Align Sprite" hack will lessen the effect a bit. | ||
